Three people were killed in shootings over eight hours on Chicago's West Side, according to police.

In the most recent shooting, a 36-year-old man was shot to death around 3:50 a.m. in the 5900 block of West Midway Park in the Austin neighborhood. The shooting apparently happened in the first floor of a building and may have been related to a domestic dispute, police said.

The man was dead on the scene.

He was identified by family as Jermale Richardson.

The family had just buried their mother in September and are now reeling from another loss said his brother, Alfred. Richardson leaves behind three children, said his brother.

"He was a wonderful guy, he was getting his life together," said the brother.
